Distance Quad Drawing

The document provides instructions on how to draw distance characteristics for protective relays. It outlines a 4-step process: 1) Find the general characteristic in the relay manual, 2) Define the number of lines, 3) Define the rotation of lines, and 4) Define the intersection points of the lines with the R-X axis. An example is then provided to demonstrate how to apply the steps to plot the distance settings for zones 1, 2, and 3 of a specific relay.
